Gloria Steinem: Trump Is Not The President Because 'He Lost By 10 Million Votes'

Yeah, not to get your blood pressures to spike over the weekend, but some on the feminist Left just need to accept that 2016 happened and they lost. It doesn’t matter that Hillary Clinton got more popular votes either; that’s not how you win the presidency. We all know this. Now, as we enter the 2018 midterm season, we still have some who just can’t stand that Trump won, that he’s president, and that Hillary Clinton will never be president—ever. Enter Gloria Steinem who says she doesn’t think Trump is president because he lost by 10 million votes. No, he didn’t (via New England Cable News):

Hundreds of women and men came to the opening night of the Massachusetts Conference for Women to hear Gloria Steinem speak. The feminist icon told the crowd Wednesday that sexual harassment is about power, not sex, and she said women are gaining their voices in a way that's never happened before. The 83-year-old didn't not mince words on power and politics. On the national conversation about sexual misconduct, she pointed to the top. "He's not the president," Steinem said of Donald Trump. "He lost by 10 million votes. I never called him president once, he's the harasser-in-chief and part of the reason, at this point, people are so frustrated." Again, that’s not how we decide the president, Ms. Steinem. Trump had a decisive 304-227 Electoral College victory over Hillary. That’s why he’s president. The willful ignorance of ignoring this aspect of the Constitution just shows you how liberals just make up the rules and move the goal posts when things don’t go their way. It’s their hallmark characteristic. Also, by “people,” you mean liberals right, Gloria?

Yet, it’s par for the course for Steinem and her ilk. Our gal couldn’t hack it, so no one really won or something. Indeed, I can understand the anger; this was one of the most winnable elections for Democrats, who blew it when they nominated Lady Macbeth to be their standard bearer. The Left shouldn’t be angry at Trump for winning, they should be more infuriated with Hillary for losing. She could have won this election if she had an economic agenda and political skill. She had neither. Some things can’t be fixed, but there certainly were other areas that she could have improved on to better her chances, like campaigning aggressively in the Rust Belt.

For that (adding it to the discussion) & that alone I hope. 8>)

[metmom]

In her dreams.

She clearly does not understand how a representative republic works.

[TangoLimaSierra]

They keep opening their mouths and removing all doubt.

Subtract out California and four of five boroughs of New York City and Trump wins even the popular vote going away.

No wonder why people are using the phrase fake news. The Establishment Media is mostly in New York City and Los Angeles, and they might as well be living as denizens of the fictional capital of Panem (if you've read the novel The Hunger Games, you know what I mean).

said, "Clinton won the popular vote by approx. 1.5 million votes. No where near the 10 million Gloria claims!"

I heard it was 100 million votes. Yeah, that was it. 200 million votes Trump lost by!

[Vaquero]

Yeah Gloria, Dear, Our Presidential elections are determined by the electoral college as written in the US Constitution.

But that, darling, is irrelevant, as your pals in the Dhimmicrat party, ability to cheat on elections has probably doubled any number you can tell me Hitlery ‘won’ the popular vote by.

I don't believe that's entirely accurate. The more appearances she made, the more public her campaign, the less people liked her. More exposure for Hillary made her negatives climb. To paraphrase Keith Jackson, people just plain didn't like her.

As for Steinem, who cares what that addled old harpy has to say?

[Sacajaweau]

Our forefathers really thought the electoral college out.

Want a good source. Try 55 Men and the Constitution...Rodell. (Hope that's right) Memory going.

[Rummyfan]

So instead she supported Bill Clintons wife. Does Gloria remember the day that hillary had to write an 800 thousand dollar check to Paula Jones?

I've got an idea - let's ‘score’ football games by ‘yards run’ rather than ‘touchdowns’ and make it retroactive...

Or define ‘feminists’ by ‘shoes owned’ rather than the ‘current snowflake definition’....

How about that Gloria Steinem? Can we be as stupid as you are?

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Gloria Steinem passed her expiration date in the 80’s.

[Right Wing Assault]

I'm sending this to "all" since some are not sure what the popular vote gap was.

[Savage Beast]

Poor Gloria. Reality escapes her.

[Right Wing Assault]

"She got the total numbers wrong....."

Barbie say, "Gloria, math is hard!!"

[GOPJ]

“Let’s not fool ourselves. “I believe Juanita” doesn’t just mean that you’re generally in favor of believing women when they report sex crimes. It means you believe that for eight years our country was in the hands of a violent rapist.”

How about it Gloria Steinem... did YOU Gloria enable a rapist - pushing to keep him in office? Oh, and the new definition of ‘feminists’ is dumb. Let me redefine it - it’s women who backed a rapist in exchange for ‘KILL THE BABY KILL THE BABY KILL THE BABY LET US KILL THE BABY’ LEGISLATION... Because with liberal sexual predators THE most important legislation is abortion. You think Harvey Weinstein and Bill Clinton wanted little versions of themselves mucking up their lives?

So, how is Hillary’s presidency going, Gloria? I haven’t heard much about it.

By more states than those that wanted Clinton (who were mostly high population areas along the coasts). Including Bernie & Jill Stein, more people voted against HRC than voted for her...

What a nasty dried up old whore!

She is so full of poisonous hatred, I hope she dies from her own poison.
